Series R58 New

Here you can configure your e-chain system® individually. All entries and changes are taking over to the part list which is situated at the end of the page.

Series R58 - Tube, snap-open along the outer radius

1. Excellent protection for cables and hoses, from hot chips as well
2. Large pins, high stability
3. Outer radius lid can be removed
4. Smooth chip-repellent outer contour
5. Small pitch for quiet smooth running
6. Fully enclosed
7. KMA mounting brackets with fully enclosed mounting options
8. Very small radii possible due to small pitch
9. Integrated strain relief available specifically for e-tubes

Available inner widths Bi: 50 to 200 mm
Available bending radii R: 75 to 250 mm
Pitch: 33.3 mm/link = 30 links / m

R58 Series is suitable for the following types of applications:

Vertical: hanging applications, standing applications
Horizontal: unsupported applications ≤ 2,3 m, gliding applications ≤ 75 m
rotary: rotating applications may be possible, please contact us

When to use Series R58 New "E2 tube"

If a stong e-tube with small pitch for low-noise running and 35 mm interior height is required
If an inner width up to 200 mm is required
For unsupported lengths up to 2,3 m and fill weights up to 8,0 kg/m
For high requirements of chip tightness

When not to use Series R58 New "E2 tube"

If a particularly cost-effective solution is required
Series R157/158
When no chip protection is required
E2/000 Series 2600/2700

"Super-aluminium" trough - the igus® standard for guide troughs

The "Super" aluminium trough is a modular system of guide troughs for long travels (where e-chains® are gliding on top of themselves). The basic "Super" aluminium trough has a simple and cost-efficient designs and can be expanded for sophisticated plant engineering. Its universal design makes it the recommended igus® standard for guide troughs.

Various mounting options with bracket, clamping shoe, interface connectors
Side-mounted glide strips for wear protection on high-speed applications
Corrosion resistant due to seawater-resistant aluminium
Flexible assembly - Fastening on substructure independent of profile lengths and butt joints

Guide troughs are used for applications, for which the upper run of the e-chain® glides on the lower run. The following components are required when using the steel igus® guide trough. Guide trough without glide bar Part No. 95.30, guide trough with glide bar Part No. 95.31 Installation set Part No. 95.50. XX
.XX indicates the length of the C-profile on which the guide trough will be mounted. The standard length of the trough parts and glide rails is 2 m. The required length of guide trough is determined by the travel length.
